Not all people will classify King Tutankhamun a good king. But reasons that he may be called a good king is that he brought alot of cultural diffusion into Egypt during his reign. He created places of trade to help increase his country's economy.

He is so famous because his tomb was in almost perfect condition. His tomb had been robbed once very soon after he was put in, but everything lost was replaced as soon as possible.The mummy of King Tut was found in 1922 by Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon.

  • There is no curse of King Tut.

When Carter first entered King Tut's lost tomb in November 1922, his financial backer George Herbert was at his side. Four months later, Herbert died of apparent blood poisoning from an infected mosquito bite. Newspapers speculated that the Englishman had fallen victim to a "mummy's curse" supposedly outlined on a clay tablet outside Tut's tomb.

  • King Tut's untimely death was probably accidental.

For years, it was speculated that King Tut's death at age 19 came courtesy of a blow to the head, inflicted, perhaps, by a murderous rival. More recently, however, experts have determined that the damage to his mummy's skull occurred after death

  • Tutankhamen reversed the radicalism of his father, reinstating traditional religious beliefs.

Historians describe Tutankhamen's reign as largely uneventful, but the young pharaoh did institute at least one major reform. His father, Akhenaten, considered the god Aten to be the Egyptian pantheon's most important deity and encouraged his worship above all others.

  • Tutankhamen was likely the product of incest.

In 2010 researchers performing DNA analyses on the remains of King Tut and his relatives made a shocking announcement. The boy king, they believed, was the product of incest between the pharaoh Akhenaten and one of his sisters. Inbreeding was rampant among ancient Egyptian royals, who saw themselves as descendants of the gods and hoped to maintain pure bloodlines.

  • King Tut wasn't buried alone.

As Carter ventured further into Tutankhamen's tomb, he discovered a treasury room brimming with priceless funerary objects, including gold figurines, ritual jewelry, small boats representing the journey to the netherworld and a shrine for the pharaoh's embalmed organs. The chamber also held two miniature coffins that contained two fetuses. Recent DNA tests suggest that one of the mummies is that of Tutankhamen's stillborn daughter and that the other was likely his child as well.

  • Three millennia after his death, the once-obscure Tutankhamen became all the rage.

For several years following Carter's discovery, no ruler was more popular than Egypt's boy king.
